Welcome to Week 37 of the Rainbow Scrap Challenge!! Our hostess, Angela, has the RSC Quilters working on our Light BLUE scraps. This was a full week and some sewing was involved, but is wasn't in the Color of the Month. As usual, I have found a way to include it, anyway.
Wanna see???
SUNDAY - This is a section of the quilt on our bed. It was made by members of Capital Quilters Guild in Raleigh. It's hard to believe that I won it more than 20 years ago:
My week started off with a Zoom call with Knittingsuek:
Note the Light BLUE shirt!! :o))
The day's ABC Printing Challenge prompt was "J" for Jeans:
MONDAY - This morning, I met up with a friend and it turned into another episode of Coffee and Collage. I transformed the pencil drawing on the left with bits of paper, some colored pencil, and a few paint pens:
Late in the day, I worked on another gel print and a journal card for the Art Journal in September challenge:
WEDNESDAY - I finished a UFO today. Just in time to meet the deadline! It's my Guild challenge quilt. I'll post about it next week.
In the meantime...
Today was a work day. I'm pleased to say that I won at Wordle...
And Quordle, too:
It was a glorious afternoon, but for some reason traffic was at a standstill on the interstate:
Beautiful Light BLUE skies for my RSC friends.
An alternate route got me home just in time to Zoom with LeeAnna @ Not Afraid of Color:
After dinner, I worked on my version of "N" for Nature gelli print:
THURSDAY - My day began with some drawing. Below is the photo of my interpretation of the ECLIPSE prompt for Day 10 of the Inchie Challenge:
It was another work/Wordle day today:
Of course, I played (and won) the day's Quordle game, as well:
Once the work day was done, I spotted this sign as I headed downtown:
Outside my destination, this old carousel horse appears to be looking longingly at the books inside May Memorial Library. I was on the hunt for journal material at the Used Book Sale:
He's sporting a bit of Light BLUE on his blanket.
A new Car Wash just opened and is offering FREE washes. I can't even tell you the last time my car had a bath!
Soaped up...
And rinsed off:
FRIDAY - Knit Group turned into Coffee and Collage for me:
It was good to see these friends again:
SURPRISE!!!
I did quilt a scrap of Light BLUE this afternoon to test out last weekend's longarm "repair" performed by DS1. The stitch regulator appears to be working, but the tension needs an adjustment:
Once that test was done, I headed out to Ella's to pick up a scrap bag:
Thanks, Ella!!
SATURDAY - It's LINK PARTY day for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge! I hope you will join me in visiting Angela @ So Scrappy to see what the RSC Quilters have been up to this week.
This is where I was headed last night...
Finish It Friday:
I worked on cutting batting and backings for two 2021 Positivity quilts:
They will soon be quilted and once the cutting was done, I drew my LAST square for the Inchie Challenge. The prompt was INTERWOVEN:
With my drawing complete, I dove into that lovely bag of fabric scraps and I spy some Light BLUE for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge:
Hmm... What shall I make???
Until next time...
Get SCRAPPY!!
